Insulinoma
Pancreatic islet cells was first described by Paul Langerhans in 1869, while he was still a medical student. Insulin was first discovered by Frederick Banting and Charles Best in 1922 from a dog’s pancreas. In 1927, William J Mayo was the first to discover the association between hyperinsulinism and a functional pancreatic islet cell tumor. In 1929, Roscoe Graham was the first to perform surgical cure of an islet cell tumor.[1] Hypoglycemia was first recognized in the 19th century. In the 1920s, after the discovery of insulin and its use in the treatment of diabetics, hyperinsulinism was suspected to be a cause of hypoglycemia in non-diabetics. A pioneering description of hyperinsulinism as a cause of hypoglycemia was published by Seale Harris in 1924. The first report of a surgical cure of hypoglycemia by removing an islet cell tumour was in 1929.[2]
